    Chance,


    It is not a life of hell: it's a rough patch. You can get over this!!! Most of us have. You have a wonderful life ahead of you.

    I want you to see your doctor today. If she's not available, go to an emergency room. You need to be evaluated TODAY. What you're feeling is a side effect of your medication, and t requires immediate medical action. Don't give up!


    We're here for you!

    I just want to find a painless way out of this hell. Any suggestions. But I'm scared the doctor won't give me my Xanax. She gave me a "90" supply which wasn't 90 and that was wednesday. Now its gone except for three pills because of last night. . I want to kill myself. My depression is so bad and my anxiety is 1000% all the time. I feel like I'm dying. I just want to already. I have nothing to live for. I know this isn't the point but what are ways of doing so harmlessly.

    Honey - There is no way out of your hell 'harmlessly'.

    You can't attempt to or actually kill yourself without causing yourself gross physical pain - or worse... You think anxiety and depression are hell? Try spending the rest of your life with brain damage or organ failure due to an unsuccessful suicide. Suicide may seem like the only option in a cruel world, but it isn't.

    Think of your parents, your extended family, your community - all of the people you would hurt if you killed yourself. Now think of the people you will hurt if you stay alive and work through this - I'm guessing that total is one - you. Suicide is selfish and causes more than physical pain.

    I don't think that this is the real you. You are having a serious adverse reaction to the Xanax. Read the list of side effects and suicidal tendancies and ideations are right there. The Xanax is causing you to feel like this!

    You need to be honest with your family and see your Doctor. You need to try some different medication - perhaps an antidepressant to help you. Maybe your Doctor won't prescribe medication at all - it seems you are very sensitive to them - they might refer you to a specialist or a psychiatrist who WILL be able to help you.

    Go and talk to your family RIGHT NOW. Tell them the TRUTH and get your butt to a Doctor or even to hospital today. You need to get off the Xanax right now and possibly be monitored until it is out of your system.

    Sadly, life isn't supposed to be easy. The hardest thing in this world is to LIVE in it. But it is also the most worthwhile.

    Please go talk to your folks. NOW.

    First off, don't be embarrassed. You are having an adverse reaction to medication, it's pretty common. Secondly, you are only taking xanax like you are for 2 reasons, 1.you are trying to get away from the reaction to the ad, common. 2.you feat addiction to the xanax, so your mind is craving it, this is also coming albeit strange.

    Trust me, there is more out there for you then you could even realize, right now you're going through a rough patch, we all have bit it will pass. One day you will look back at this and wonder how you thought there was nothing to live for, believe me on that.

    Also, be honest with your parents, and whatever doctor or er you see, if they don't know what you're going through and what the meds are doing to you then they can't help, but tell them flat out that you need a different ad, this one is not working. If they don't give you more xanax, don't worry you will be ok without it, you're not addicted you only think you are that will stop once the proper ad starts working for you. If they do give you more, then I revert back to your first post, I think perhaps your parents should monitor the meds and make sure you take no more than the prescribed dose.

    Whatever happens you will get better, but seek help and do it NOW.
    Every lasting scar shows us what it's taken to be who we are.

    I'm planning on taking 12.5 mg and a glass of vodka this afternoon. I have no friends no family that will listen and nobody would take to me the ER. I'm just tired, exhausted, depressed, etc. I love all of you for your help. You've all been amazing to me and I love each and every one of you.

    Chance,


    You won't kill yourself with that... You'll only get a terrible hangover. You don't need anyone to take you to the ER. You can call an ambulance. You can call your doctor.

    You're in a dark, vicious circle right now. We're here to help you, but we can't unless you help yourself. And helping yourself at this moment means going to the doc no matter what.

    Keep us posted!
